Abstract

Penggunaan teknologi informasi dan komunikasi memainkan peran yang sangat penting dalam meningkatkan pengajaran bahasa Inggris. Di Libya, bahasa Inggris dianggap sebagai bahasa asing dan dengan demikian tidak ada eksposur banyak penggunaan bahasa Inggris di kalangan mahasiswa. Jadi TIK dapat membantu belajar dan mengajar bahasa Inggris. Namun, tujuan utama dari penelitian ini adalah untuk menyelidiki tantangan yang dihadapi oleh guru dalam menggunakan ICT Libya dalam pengajaran bahasa Inggris sebagai suatu FL. Oleh karena itu, kuesioner adalah metode untuk mengumpulkan data dan survei deskriptif dilakukan antara 70 guru bahasa Inggris yang dipilih dari semua sekolah menengah di kampung peneliti (Sirte) untuk menentukan pengalaman mereka dan persepsi tentang penggunaan Informasi dan Teknologi Komunikasi dalam pengajaran bahasa Inggris. Temuan penelitian, yang disajikan dalam bentuk tabel frekuensi, menunjukkan bahwa hanya sekitar sepertiga dari responden telah menghadiri kursus komputer karena kesempatan terbatas. Pandangan yang beragam dicatat pada kegunaan dari program dihadiri. Para responden juga mengaku memiliki akses terbatas ke fasilitas komputer di sekolah mereka. Sebagian besar responden setuju tentang manfaat pentingnya, dan kegunaan dari teknologi komputer. Namun, temuan juga mengungkapkan tantangan yang dihadapi oleh responden dalam penggunaan ICT dalam pengajaran bahasa Inggris. Rekomendasi untuk mengatasi tantangan yang kemudian diajukan. Diharapkan bahwa temuan studi ini akan membantu untuk menumpahkan beberapa lampu pada cara untuk memaksimalkan penggunaan ICT dalam pengajaran bahasa Inggris di Libya di bawah kendala yang ada. The Use of Information and Communication Technology in Teaching English as a Foreign Language in Libya: A Survey on High School Teachers in Sirte The use of information and communication technology plays a very important role in enhancing the teaching of English language. In Libya, English language is considered as a foreign language and as such there is not much exposure to the use of English among the students. So the ICT can help the learning and teaching of the English language. However, the main purpose of this research is to investigate the challenges faced by Libyan teachers in using ICT in the teaching of English as a FL. Therefore, a questionnaire was the method to gather the data and a descriptive survey was carried out among 70 English language teachers who were chosen from all the secondary schools in the researcher’s hometown (Sirte) to determine their experience in and perceptions on the use of Information and Communication Technology in the teaching of English language. The research findings, which are presented in the form of frequencies tables, showed that only about one third of the respondents had attended computer courses due to limited opportunities. Mixed views were recorded on the usefulness of the courses attended. The respondents also claimed to have limited access to the computer facilities at their schools. A large majority of the respondents agreed on the importance, benefits and usefulness of the computer technology. However, the findings also revealed the challenges faced by the respondents in the use of ICT in teaching English. Recommendations to overcome the challenges were subsequently put forward. It is hoped that the findings of the study will help to shed some lights on the ways to maximize the use of ICT in English language teaching in Libya under the existing constraints.
